The GIANA clustering analysis revealed shared clonotypes across responder patients. (A) The clonotype clustering analysis of all HPV-negative responders (CR/PR) based on the distance calculated from the software GIANA. Sequences of special interest are marked with an asterisk (*). (B) The combined GIANA clustering reveals shared clones between peripheral TCR repertoires of CR patients and tumor samples from TCGA-HNSC. (C) The sequence logo plot shows the amino acid pattern of all CDR3 reads in CP/PR patients matched to the sequences retrieved from TCGA-HNSC. CDR3, complementarity-determining region 3; CR, complete response; PR, partial response; TCR, T cell receptor.
